payment intangible.
(1) An account debtor on a controllable account or controllable payment
intangible may discharge its obligation by paying:
(a) The person
having control of the controllable electronic record that evidences the
controllable account or controllable payment intangible; or
(b) Except as
provided in subsection (2) of this section, a person that formerly had control
of the controllable electronic record.
(2) Subject to
subsection (4) of this section, the account debtor may not discharge its
obligation by paying a person that formerly had control of the controllable
electronic record if the account debtor receives a notification that:
(a) Is signed by
a person that formerly had control or the person to which control was
transferred;
(b) Reasonably
identifies the controllable account or controllable payment intangible;
(c) Notifies the
account debtor that control of the controllable electronic record that
evidences the controllable account or controllable payment intangible was
transferred;
(d) Identifies
the transferee in any reasonable way, including by name, identifying number,
cryptographic key, office or account number; and
(e) Provides a
commercially reasonable method by which the account debtor is to pay the
transferee.
(3) After receipt
of a notification that complies with subsection (2) of this section, the
account debtor may discharge its obligation by paying in accordance with the
notification and may not discharge the obligation by paying a person that
formerly had control.
(4) Subject to
subsection (8) of this section, notification is ineffective under subsection
(2) of this section:
(a) Unless,
before the notification is sent, the account debtor and the person that, at
that time, had control of the controllable electronic record that evidences the
controllable account or controllable payment intangible agree in a signed
record to a commercially reasonable method by which a person may furnish
reasonable proof that control has been transferred;
(b) To the extent
an agreement between the account debtor and seller of a payment intangible
limits the account debtors duty to pay a person other than the seller and the
limitation is effective under law other than ORS 80.1010 to 80.1070; or
(c) At the option
of the account debtor, if the notification notifies the account debtor to:
(A) Divide a payment;

than the full amount of an installment or other periodic payment; or
(C) Pay any part
of a payment by more than one method or to more than one person.

giving the notification under subsection (2) of this section seasonably shall
furnish reasonable proof, using the method in the agreement referred to in
subsection (4)(a) of this section, that control of the controllable electronic
record has been transferred. Unless the person complies with the request, the
account debtor may discharge its obligation by paying a person that formerly
had control, even if the account debtor has received a notification under
subsection (2) of this section.
(6) A person
furnishes reasonable proof under subsection (5) of this section that control
has been transferred if the person demonstrates, using the method in the
agreement referred to in subsection (4)(a) of this section, that the transferee
has the power to:
(a) Avail itself
of substantially all the benefit from the controllable electronic record;
(b) Prevent
others from availing themselves of substantially all the benefit from the
controllable electronic record; and
(c) Transfer the
powers specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subsection to another
person.

subsection (8) of this section, an account debtor may not waive or vary its
rights under subsections (2)(a) and (5) of this section or its option under
subsection (4)(c) of this section.
(8) This section
is subject to law other than ORS 80.1010 to 80.1070 that establishes a
different rule for an account debtor who is an individual and who incurred the
obligation primarily for personal, family or household purposes. [2025 c.33 §99]
